Technical cleanliness analysis with an SEM Why
Technical cleanliness
With the growing demand for analysis of smaller particles beyond the scope of light microscopy within (automotive) industries, the Phenom ParticleX TC (Technical Cleanliness) Desktop SEM enables automated scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). This is a major advantage over light microscopy as it enables chemical classification of the particles, providing great insights in your production processes and/or environments. Standard reports compliant with VDA 19 / ISO 16232 or ISO 4406/4407 are available.
Secondary electron detector
A secondary electron detector (SED) is optionally available on the Phenom ParticleX TC (Technical Cleanliness) Desktop SEM. The SED collects low-energy electrons from the top surface layer of the sample. It is therefore the perfect choice to reveal detailed sample surface information. The SED can be of great use for applications where topography and morphology are important. This is often the case when studying microstructures, fibers or particles.
General SEM usage
The user interface is based on the proven ease-of-use technology applied in the successful Phenom desktop SEM products. The interface enables both existing and new users to quickly become familiar with the system with a minimum of training.
Elemental mapping and line scan
For a user, it is simply click and go to work with the elemental mapping and line scan functionality of the Phenom ParticleX TC (Technical Cleanliness) Desktop SEM. The line scan functionality shows the quantified element distribution in a line plot.
ChemiSEM Technology
Thermo Scientific ChemiSEM Technology revolutionizes and simplifies EDS analysis by fully integrating SEM and EDS functions into a single, cohesive user interface. Based on live quantification and building on decades of expertise in EDS analysis, the technology provides elemental information quickly and easily, guaranteeing reliable results in less time. ChemiSEM Technology now comes with a powerful new feature: ChemiPhase. ChemiPhase identifies unique phases with a big data approach, finding minor and trace elements while eliminating user bias and reducing possible mistakes.
